High Energy Physics - Theory
Title: Conformal Field Theories: From Old to New
Authors: Jan de Boer M.B. Halpern (Submitted on 11 Feb 1998) Abstract: In a short review of recent work, we discuss the general problem of constructing the actions of new conformal field theories from old conformal field theories. Such a construction follows when the old conformal field theory admits new conformal stress tensors in its chiral algebra, and it turns out that the new conformal field theory is generically a new spin-two gauge theory. As an example we discuss the new spin-two gauged sigma models which arise in this fashion from the general conformal non-linear sigma model.

The search for a quantum field theory
"[Renormalization is] just a stop-gap procedure. There must be some fundamental change in our ideas, probably a change just as fundamental as the passage from Bohr's orbit theory to quantum mechanics. When you get a number turning out to be infinite which ought to be finite, you should admit that there is something wrong with your equations, and not hope that you can get a good theory just by doctoring up that number."
- Paul Dirac, Nobel laureate 1933
"The shell game that we play ... is technically called 'renormalization'. But no matter how clever the word, it is still what I would call a dippy process! Having to resort to such hocus-pocus has prevented us from proving that the theory of quantum electrodynamics is mathematically self-consistent. It's surprising that the theory still hasn't been proved self-consistent one way or the other by now; I suspect that renormalization is not mathematically legitimate."

What are C*-algebras good for?
John Baez
March 1, 2000
I'd like to say a bit about the importance of C*-algebras in physics. I'll carefully avoid any sort of mathematical details and focus on the basic physical ideas. Everything will be nonrigorous, handwavy, and vague. I won't even define what a C*-algebra is! I just want to get you interested. For details, try some of the references at the end. In quantum mechanics we often start by taking classical observables and writing down some formulas which say that actually these observables don't commute. The famous example is of course pq - qp = i hbar but there are many others. When we do this, what we're really doing is defining an algebra - physicists would usually call it an "algebra of observables". C*-algebras are a way of making this precise. They were invented by Irving Segal in 1947. However, his work was based on that of others, especially von Neumann's papers with Murray the foundations of quantum mechanics, and also the ideas of Gelfand and Naimark. Now, observables aren't much use without states. One way to get ahold of states is to take your algebra of observables and represent it as an algebra of operators on a Hilbert space. Then unit vectors in your Hilbert space represent states.

3. Topological Quantum Field Theory
Besides general relativity and quantum field theory as usually practiced, a third sort of idealization of the physical world has attracted a great deal of attention in the last decade. These are called topological quantum field theories, or `TQFTs'. In the terminology of the previous section, a TQFT is a background-free quantum theory with no local degrees of freedom A good example is quantum gravity in 3-dimensional spacetime. First let us recall some features of classical The absence of local degrees of freedom makes general relativity far simpler in 3-dimensional spacetime than in higher dimensions. Perhaps surprisingly, it is still somewhat interesting. The reason is the presence of `global' degrees of freedom. For example, if we chop a cube out of flat 3-dimensional Minkowski space and form a 3-dimensional torus by identifying the opposite faces of this cube, we get a spacetime with a flat metric on it, and thus a solution of the vacuum Einstein equations. If we do the same starting with a larger cube, or a parallelipiped, we get a different spacetime that also satisfies the vacuum Einstein equations. The two spacetimes are locally indistinguishable, since locally both look just like flat Minkowski spacetime. However, they can be distinguished

Renormalization Made Easy
John Baez
December 5, 2009
That was very vague. To make it precise takes some work. To do it in a limited amount of time, I'm gonna assume you vaguely know what a Lagrangian for a quantum field theory looks like, and that you know how different terms in the Lagrangian correspond to different sorts of particle interactions, which can be drawn as "vertices" of Feynman diagrams. QED: Strange Theory of Matter and Light , you're probably ready for what I'm about to say.
1. The Game Called "Renormalization"
Now our Lagrangian has some coupling constants in it, but it's hard to measure these directly. Even though they have names like "mass", "charge" and so on, these parameters aren't what you directly This game is called "renormalization". zero , the corresponding physical coupling constants may be nonzero . For example, if you start with a Lagrangian in which the mass of some particle is zero, you might not have bothered to include that mass among your bare coupling constants. But its physical mass (measured at some momentum scale) can still be nonzero. In this case, we say the particle "acquires a mass through its interactions with other particles". This sort of thing happens all the time. What this means is that to succeed in adjusting the bare coupling constants to fit the experimentally observed physical coupling constants, we need to start with a Lagrangian that has enough bare coupling constants to begin with. You can't expect to fit N numbers with fewer than N numbers!

Quantum Field Theory
The next contradiction that physicists faced was between quantum mechanics (which had been developed over the thirty years following Planck's seminal insight) and the special theory of relativity. Most of the work in quantum mechanics was in the Galilean (or non-relativistic) approximation.
To be sure, Dirac had developed a relativistic wave equation for the electron, which was an important advance, but there was still a basic contradiction that needed to be resolved. The new feature that is required in a successful union of quantum mechanics and special relativity is the possibility of the creation and annihilation of quanta (or `particles'). The non-relativistic theory does not have this feature.
The framework in which quantum mechanics and special relativity are successfully reconciled is called quantum field theory. It is based on three basic principles: two of them, of course, are quantum mechanics and special relativity. The third one, which I wish to emphasize, is the postulate that elementary particles are point-like objects of zero intrinsic size. In practice, they are smeared over a region of space due to quantum effects, but their descripton in the basic equations is as mathematical points.
Now the general principles on which quantum field theory are based actually allow for many different consistent theories to be constructed. (The consistency has not been established with mathematical rigour, but this is not a concern for most physicists.)

Great game of netball or greatest game of netball? Oct 15, 2010 09:27
I was sitting in the other room working when I heard the netball on the television. Amy had flicked over during Project Runway (I love that show) and was suddenly enthralled by what may have been the most tense game we have ever watched. I kept typing with the TV audio enough to keep me hooked as did the Twitter updates streaming through that were mainly made up of swearing, groans and score updates. The swearing was mainly aimed at the referees who seemed to a vague understanding of how the rules went and were just kind of winging it. Thankfully their odd calls went in both directions and I thought the commentators did admirably to keep their own swearing in their heads. I was devastated.
